BOX 240-339 Alphabetical File, 1916-1998
Spira’s wide range of research files, advocacy efforts, and topical interests are documented in this series. Folders with state or country names contain material on animal welfare activities and organizations in that geographic location. Spira had many connections to activists in the global animal welfare movement as well as scientists and journalists who worked on issues surrounding the use of animals in scientific research and agriculture. Files for many of these people can be found in this series. People who worked closely with Spira and have substantial material in this series include Pegeen Fitzgerald, Temple Grandin, Andrew N. Rowan, Frankie Trull, and Peter Singer. Other files of special interest include William Henry James Douglas, a Tufts University scientist working with Spira on alternatives to animal testing who was arrested and convicted of murder. Spira continued to correspond with Douglas during his prison term. Many files also relate to the case of Fran Trutt, an activist who was convicted of the attempted murder of Leon Hirsch, president of the United States Surgical Corporation, in 1988, as well as other files relating to associations between animal welfare activism and terrorism. This series also contains a variety of visual and graphic material such as printed advocacy material, mock-ups for advertisements, comics and comic books with animal rights themes, and a collection of printings of works by counter cultural poet, musician, and cartoonist Tuli Kupferberg. A substantial group of photographs is also included in this series and is organized topically.
Correspondence, notes, writings, reports, photographs and news clippings.
